Backward Man

After Words Paranormal ·

2024/07/16

What does our future hold? That question has been asked by humans for a millennium. Ancient cultures, and modern ones, too, have often used dreams, animal sightings and more as symbols that foretell the future. In our story, “Backward Man,” by Caleb Taylor, a young man has seen a strange, horrific individual his whole life. And, whenever he sees it, someone dies. We'll also look into the lore of omens and common harbingers of death. MusicFesliyan Studios: "Ghost Stories," "The Pain That Never...

Two from Blair Daniels

After Words Paranormal ·

2024/06/18

On this episode we present two short stories by horror writer, Blair Daniels. In our first story, “The Painting My Husband Keeps,” a young wife does not like a painting her husband insists on displaying in their home. As we discover, her dislike of the painting is fueled by more than artistic preference. Our second story, “Thou Shalt Not Steal,” is about a young mother who regrets her decision to steal a fire engine for her son. Although she didn’t pay for the toy, she almost pays with her so...

After Words Paranormal ·

Our story for this episode is “Dummy,” by Simon MacCulloch. The story is about a ventriloquist and his dummy who have come to the end of their act. And, when I say end, I mean that literally.

Something Nasty

After Words Paranormal ·

2024/05/28

Our story for this episode, “Something Nasty,” by William F. Nolan is about a mean Uncle and his niece’s revenge.That revenge is very much like Voodoo. I have to be honest. Voodoo scares me a little. I guess I’ve seen too many movies in which folks get “Zombie-ized” or have spiders crawl out of their face. So as background to the story, and perhaps to way lay my fears, we"ll also find out more about this fascinating religion.MusicFesliyan Studios: "Ghost Stories,"Audio Jungle: "Halloween Walt...
